17 C63S Coupe PTG1000
Running a similar set-up as Fishy22, minus the AWE track exhaust. On Michelin PS4S (295 rear) can spin to the top of 3rd gear, if the tires aren't fully warmed up (and sometimes even if they are).
The next step after these set-ups is additional fueling, which is typically meth. The downside is it's not a great set-up for a daily driver.
Working on getting a dyno session soon but have been told to expect 650-670whp on 93 octane.
"Big Turbo" set-ups like the PTG1000's, the ECU tune moves the power curve over ~2k RPM, to about 4-4.5K RPM, so it's definitely a different feeling from a stock (or "stage 2") C63S when the boost comes on.
Hope that helps.

Stage 3
I'm like most of the guys above
PTG1000 turbos
Catless downpipes
Spool HP pumps
Weistec intakes
Aquamist water meth
Best 100-200kmh time I managed was 5.10 with traction issues, im running 295 R888R's and it still roasts them.
Unfortunately where I live the fuel is crap so there definitely will be faster guys out there with the same setup.
I'm waiting for a decent in tank upgrade fuel pump upgrade to come out so I can run higher E fuel blends
ZAC has rumored they are developing a split cooling system that's going to be more affordable than the 3000USD PTG system , so waiting for that also

PTG 1000 Turbos
Downpipes
Meth Kit
Zac Intakes
Currently at 715WHP
Car needs to go back for a CPC module but thinking maybe to replace the exhaust with a AWE track version before it goes back on the dyno

Also curious to see what methanol system everyone is running. Are you tuned for methanol using it for extra fueling or just using it as a cooling/octane booster? ZIpzap how is your experience with the spool HPFP? How involved is the install and where they difficult to dial in? I see you have methanol also, what system are you using and would you recommend it? I'm still on the stock fuel system and looking into methanol kits vs Spool HPFP as my next upgrade. Appreciate any insight, thanks!!

Right now I have pure1000 turbos running a conservative 93 meth tune makes 730whp . best time is 5.93 but it does 6.0-6.05 almost every time. I roll into it from 3rd vs 2nd. r888rs do great above 45mph for me. Just installed spool hpfp and lpfp gonna take it back for e50 tune hopefully shoot for 850-900

I'm super curious about the meth set-up you (and everyone else) has.
What are the basic costs and level-of-effort to implement (kit cost and install effort) and run meth (do you just buy by the gallon)? I've never seen or built a car with meth injection so curious about the process on this platform (i.e. pros and cons).
On top of 93oct, it seems like meth can gain you a good 50-75whp extra. Is that a fair statement?
